Answer: option c.

Explanation:

The wave of strikes in 1945-46 was caused by option C: The lifting of restrictions on labor unions by President Truman. In 1947, Congress responded to the strikes by passing the Taft-Hartley Act, restricting the powers and activities of labor unions. Congress did this, going over Truman's veto. This act is still in use as of 2018.
